auxiliary materials is a kind of materials that is necessary to ensure the normal progress of the quality and process of the parts and does not enter the final parts in addition to the main materials and mold of the parts during the forming process of composite materials parts. auxiliary materials mainly include: releasing agent, vacuum bag film, breathable materials, isolation film, adhesive materials, surface layer materials, high temperature pressure sensitive tape, vacuum sealing tape, release paper, etc. This type of materials is consumable, and most of them are disposable. The type, quality and use method of auxiliary materials have a very important impact on the curing quality of composite materials molding. Its temperature resistance and pressure resistance characteristics should be compatible with the curing conditions of composite materials molding. There are many kinds of auxiliary materials used in the autoclave forming process.
